This is from the Valentine Democrat Valentine, Nebraska Oct. 12, 1905 The following poem is from the pen of A. J. Irwin of Thermopolis, Wyo., who is the father of James Irwin of this city: The family home I loved so well With childhood scenes so bright, Has passed far away from home; But where are they all tonight. Yes, where are they tonight? A few happy years of time, That was pleasant fair and bright, And all left their childhood home: But where are they tonight, Yes, where are they tonight? The childhood song I sung, That made our hearts feel light, Has gone back : on the roll of time: But where are all tonight? Yes, where are all tonight? I never thought of the days When the family home so bright, Would be broken up by time: But where are they tonight? Yes, where are they tonight? They are out in the world A living on their right, Taking in all the joys of life; But where are they tonight, Yes, where are they tonight? Living on homes far and near, Taking in wealth on sight, And practicing lessons learned: But where are they tonight, Yes, where are they tonight? Days and years have come and gone, And childhood once so bright Has grown to man and womanhood: But where are they tonight, Yes, where are they tonight? They're out in the field of time, A laboring for their right, And at the close of the summer day They close work for the night; But where are they all tonight, Yes, where are all tonight ? -- Treat all stressful situations like a dog does.
